  • I found a glitch
    This is an awesome metronome, but I found a glitch that makes it unusable for what I was looking for. I'm using the ability to subdivide the beat into up to 20 pieces to practice 1/16 notes which are between straight and swung. For example, to get sixteenth notes that are almost straight but not quite, I put the subdivisions up to 20, mute all except for the 1st and 12th, which I accent. In order for these to be 1/16 notes, I put the beats per measure to 8 and those become 1/8 notes instead of 1/4 notes, which means that I need to do double the tempo. That's where I run into a problem. When I get past 150 bpm (which is actually 75 bpm - way under tempo), the metronome starts tripping out, playing the subdivisions in seemingly random places, differently in each measure. I haven't figured out exactly what it's doing but it's not doing what it's supposed to be doing. Fix this bug and it will be 5 stars, in my opinion. While I'm at it, I'd like to suggest going to 24, a number divisible by 2, 3 and 4 instead of 20, which is not divisible by 3; that way, one could go from straight 1/16 notes (accenting the 13th subdivision) to triplet 1/16 notes (accenting the 17th) to true dotted 1/16-32nd notes (accenting the 19th) and have 3 choices between straight and triplet (14th, 15th, & 16th) and one between triplet and dotted 1/16th-32nd (18th). Thanks.
